The faucet you paid $30.00 for years ago is now $80.00 wholesale for chrome.

Check.

The thing is, the old one wasn't name-brand. Just something they were
selling to contractors. It wasn't fancy, but it **Wasn't Junk** (witness
20 years use). I thought maybe the Glacier Bay might be similar.

HD and Lowes are nuts for customer satisfaction though. They will give your
money back, no questions asked.

That was part of the decision to buy.

Get your self a 80-90 dollar chrome Delta or Moen and you'll do much better.

Check.

Those faucets have the same guts inside as they did 20 years ago when you
bought your previous faucet.

But they don't use "compression" valves anymore?

That in itself speaks volumes, and due to
their competitive nature, they probably both have lifetime warranties now.
Make sure you look for it. BTW. Galcier Bay and Price Pfister probably have
lifetime warranties too, but you'll wear yourself out using them. :-(
Also, if you want a finish other than chrome, plan on paying a good bit
more, otherwise you'll take home more garbage with a nice look to it.

Chrome is OK with me.

Does anybody know if all these "4 Hole Application" faucets are
8 " center of hot to center of cold?

Are (absolutely) -all- the Moens OK? I almost bought a Moen Castleby 7905
on Ebay this morn for about $45+10.

The Glacier Bay will OUT. I dunno when, but it's going back to HD.

Thx,
Will
